This is my go to vegan spot, I have been there multiple times & usually its great service, ambiance & food. But this time I had ordered the'calamari' rings, per usual, & after a couple bites something was very off about it, it was undercooked & a weird taste so we had sent it back. When they returned with the plate they quite literally refried the same amount of'calamari' rings we left on the plate we sent in… bruh. Other than that the new'calamari' was still tasting weird, so they must have changed their recipes or something… very unfortunate
What a lovely experience - fantastic meal with creativity & flavour abound!! This is also coming from a non-vegan!
The space gives a warm vibe without being tight & cramped. I enjoyed an incredible mocktail (Blackberry Pearl) & the'calamari' is a *must*
Will be back on our next trip to Montreal!
This restaurant is a great spot with plenty of vegetarian & vegan options. The food is full of flavor & genuinely delicious, & coming from someone who is not vegetarian or vegan, I really loved it. There are so many great choices on the menu.
They also have a wide drink selection, from cocktails & mocktails to smoothies, all highly recommended. The atmosphere is calm & cozy, perfect for an afternoon with friends, a date, or even a book club meetup. Definitely a place worth coming back to.

What an experience!
I have recommended LOV to my non-vegan/vegetarian friends & they have also been blown away with the craftsmanship & curated culinarily experience of LOV. First, the interior design speaks for itself. It's strategically designed & tells a story throughout the space, from the entrance to the bathroom, every moment as been thought out.
It was difficult to choose from the menu because everything sound so delicious, fresh & healthy.
I tried a variety of options & couldn't be more satisfied with out choices. Lastly, cheers to the amazing staff, you folks provided THE best customer service!!
Je suis dans le processus de devenir vegan & c'était une superbe expérience afin de m'y préparer ! J'ai pu en apprendre sur de nouveaux plats & j'ai développé de nouveaux goûts. La cuisine était incroyable! Tout était savoureux, flavourful & en grande quantité. Si je n'avais pas su que c'était végé/vegan, je ne l'aurai jamais deviné!! Je vous recommande clairement les raviolis à la courge. Quoi que tout était excellent👀. De plus, l'ambiance est chaleureuse, calme si vous arrivez tôt & le service à la clientèle est impeccable.
The dumplings were incredible, the risotto was perfectly done, & the chocolate cake/brownie was just amazing. The drinks LOV'ini & Tiki Mahana were easily some of the best cocktails I've ever had.
The ambience was romantic, & the service was just as amazing atttentive & welcoming throughout.
So happy to have discovered such a great vegan restaurant. Definitely a place worth visiting!
The place is beautiful. The food itself is okay. The vegan attempt at making seafood with plants yet charging seafood orices is probably the least favorite part of our experience. Food is visually appealing but the flavor is not really there.
